Celebrity Girl Is My Wife Chapter 234
Jiang Zhe dared not add on upon seeing how Ning Ran’s face was all scrunched up. He could only
look at her quietly with his hands hanging by his side.
Ning Ran also knew Jiang Zhe was just following orders and that he had no authority to change any
use written in the contract.
Thus, it was useless to snap at him because he waspletely powerless.
However, she was still furious and felt as powerless as Jiang Zhe.
As Nan Chen had authorized these contracts, no one could change them without his consent.
“I want to see Nan Chen,” Ning Ran requested.
“The president is currently apanying the mayor to inspect Nanshi Corporation’s agricultural
projects. I’m afraid he won’t be avable on such short notice. He instructed me to stay back to settle
this as soon as possible because he was worried you would need the money urgently.”
“Does this mean I have to thank him for giving me such an unfair contract?” Ning Ran shouted.
At her loud voice, Jiang Zhe stopped talking.
“He’s doing this on purpose to take advantage of me, isn’t he? Does he, the president of arge
consortium, think it’s fun to go out of his way to deal with a weak woman like me?”
“Ms. Ding, I’m not sure if I should be saying this,” Jiang Zhe said softly.
“I know you want to persuade me to sign. You’re Nan Chen’s aplice!”
Jiang Zhe smiled bitterly. “Ms. Ding, you speak too highly of me. I have no right to be Sir Chen’s
aplice. I’m just following orders, doing what I’m told to do.”
“Then what is it you want to say?” Ning Ran asked.
“Star Entertainment’s domestic influence is second to none. Among the many superstars born every
year, more than half of them came from Star Entertainment. Star Entertainment’s artists have a huge
market, not only in China but in other Asian countries as well. We have a more professional team and
more than enough resources at our fingertips. I’m sure you know Mr. Zheng Lunlun. When Star
Entertainment managed him, it only took him less than six months to amass fame halfway across the
world since his debut. No otherpany can achieve such star-making speed. And then there’s that
former celebrity, Ms. Luo. I’m sure you’ve heard of her, and know her strengths as well. Whether it was
singing skills or acting skills, she had nothing at all and her EQ was super low. But she was molded into
a superstar. This shows that Star Entertainment is definitely one of the best in the industry,” Jiang Zhe
said in one breath before looking quietly at Ning Ran.
“So? What you mean is, I should be honored to sign with Star Entertainment and should immediately
sign this contract no matter the conditions offered?” Ning Ran questioned.
“I have no right to make this decision for you, Ms. Ding. I’m just telling you my opinions. As an artist,
the sooner you get famous, the better it is, not to mention that you debuted prettyte for your age, Ms.
Ding.”

“You’re saying I’m old?”
Jiang Zhe frantically exined, “Of course not. I’m just saying from the perspective of your debut, it
was a littlete. Having a huge fandom is the key to survival in this industry. Only a few capable stars
can maintain their artistic life through self-discipline and hard work. So you don’t have to worry about
the duration of the contract, Ms. Ding. If Star Entertainment can make you popr, you’ll be a superstar
wherever you go in the future. So why bother whichpany do you sign with? If Star Entertainment
can’t even make you popr, then with all due respect, it would be almost impossible for you and
Cheng Xiangyun to make a breakthrough in this industry. Besides, who will dare to cooperate with you
if word gets out within the industry that you rejected Sir Chen’s contract?”
Jiang Zhe’sst sentence was the main point.
He didn’t mean to threaten her. He was just telling the truth.
It was almost certain that no other entertainmentpany would dare to sign Ning Ran in the future if
she rejected Nan Chen.
With no entertainmentpany to support her, she would have to fly solo by depending on an
independent agent; exactly like how she was working with Cheng Xiangyun now.
It would be fine at the initial age, but it would be impossible for further development.
Besides, she had be the female lead of this drama by mistake. What about her next project?
If she refused to sign with Star Entertainment, it was uncertain if she could ept jobs from now on.
Therefore, there was no way out, and she could only sign this contract.
Seeing Ning Ran contemting, Jiang Zhe continued to persuade her, “When the drama you’re
starring in right now bes popr, Sir Chen will arrange a movie for you to take part in. Only actors
who acted on the big screen can be considered as A-list celebs. When you and thepany make a
lot of money in five or six years, you would probably get sick of acting and call it quits. By then, you can
retire from acting by faking an illness or something. Can thepany still force you to work for twenty
years? Have you seen any actors who have been active for that long? So why harp on a twenty-year
contract period? Besides, you’ll be a veteran if you can stay at Star Entertainment for twenty years.
How great an aplishment must that be?”
“Veteran my foot! You’re a veteran! Your entire family are veterans!” Ning Ran chided.
“Yes, yes, my entire neighborhood is full of veterans! Consider it, Ms. Ding. Am I making sense?” Jiang
Zhe said curtly.
Ning Ran had always known Jiang Zhe was just a wily old fox, despite looking like a yes-man on the
surface.
The fact that he could be a special assistant to someone who was as fierce as the tiger-like Nan Chen
showed just how polished he was.
He said a lot today which might seem like he was persuading Ning Ran, but in fact, he was nning
the future for Ning Ran.
At least he hinted Ning Ran a few questions. One, if she didn’t sign this contract, she would have a
rough journey ahead in showbiz; Two, Sir Chen would definitely send her to stardom as long as she
signed this contract, and her poprity would at least exceed Luo Fei’s; Three, she didn’t have to worry
about the contract period because she could do whatever she wanted and no one could stop her once
she bes a hotshot.
It actually made sense after much consideration.
However, Jiang Zhe missed out on the most important point, although Ning Ran knew it well deep
down.
That was, Nan Chen would change no use in this contract. It was either she signed it or it was a no-
deal.
It wasn’t a multiple-choice question, but a single-choice question and the standard answer was in Nan
Chen’s hands.
“Fine. When will I get the money after I sign the contract?” Ning Ran asked.
“Soon,” Jiang Zhe replied.
Just then, Ning Ran’s phone rang again. It was that old woman, Luo Yi.
Ning Ran didn’t pick up, but the caller was relentless, so she had no choice but to walk aside to answer
her phone.
“Ran, have you prepared the money? The hospital is chasing your father to pay the bill again. We really
can’t get the money. Why don’t you send us five million first?” Luo Yi said.
“I’m still borrowing. I don’t have that much money. You think five million is just fifty?” Ning Ran
chastised.
“Ran, I suggest you speak nicely to me. I’m your elder, after all. If I get angry, your mother’s ashes—”
“Shut up! Oh, don’t you worry, Luo Yi, I’ll get even with you sooner orter! Don’t you dare touch my
mother’s things or I’ll make your life a living hell!” Ning Ran screamed anxiously.
“Jeez, why are you so fierce? I didn’t even do anything! Go get the money and stop quarrelling with me.
You’d better be quick cause you’re running out of time!” Luo Yi warned.
